You can actually say "ass" here, btw.

Fuckin' mainstream social media-ass comment.

[-] Anarki_ 23 points 1 week ago

No they're on .world so bad words like "ass" deal psychic damage to them.

I'm on .world.

Ass.
Fuck.
Shit.

[-] crapton_america@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Stop, you’ll get fucking hurt!

[-] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 13 points 1 week ago

"ahh" has a better ring to it than "ass"

[-] dufkm@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Personally I prefer "arse" with an uppity RP (Received Pronunciation) accent.

I'm not going to downvote you for this, because you're allowed to think that, but I want you to know that I want to because you're wrong. Lol

I read it as “better help uhh therapist” because of the stupid ass self censorship. I’m not blaming the user for doing it, just annoyed for natural real world language getting hamstrung to satisfy advertisers. How long until “tisk tisk tisk! You can’t say ‘ahh’, that’s a naughty word!”?

That's really, genuinely never made sense to me. If I'm going to say "freaking cold" it has the exact same meaning as "fucking cold". So what's the difference? Yet one is acceptable and one is, *clutches pearls*, a bad word. :O

[-] DesolateMood@lemm.ee 11 points 1 week ago

Yeah but saying ahh is funny

Ass is just crass (also, this has the same energy as redditors who complain about emojis)

[-] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 7 points 1 week ago

Ahh means ass? Drag is out of touch.

[-] Mac@mander.xyz 5 points 1 week ago

Yeah, it's an AAVE based, censorship-born, slang term.

I mean, if the specific word you want to use seems to be an inappropriate tone, maybe find a different way to say what you're trying to say instead of injecting a filter-bypass replacement for the same word you didn't feel was an appropriate tone?

Betterhelp-coded therapist

Sounds like Betterhelp's caliber of therapists

Lemme guess, this "therapist" was via Betterhelp

For a couple of examples

Edit: I see you didn't post the original comment. Oops!
